There are millions of American kids and adults that think Big Bird is a protected species and with good reason.  ;)

Odd color phase of a Eurasian Eagle Owl.  She's in full "threat posture", puffed up like a tumbleweed.  They run about 5 lbs and are bloody minded killers!  And for an owl, pretty smart.  The feathers would be legal in the United States, but you would want to carry some sort of documentation with you because their feathers tend to look almost identical to a great horned owl.

In Finland they are called Uhu's ...cuz that's the call they make uuuuUUHoooo!

I've (almost) worked with one, but she decided I was worthless and beneath her dignity.
